Thread: Given the chance I will shoot the idiot who designed RRC mudflaps

Front ones were only fitted to HiLine and Vogue models.

The early 2 doors and the poverty pack never had the front ones fitted. By phase 2 (1985) the PovPack could be identified by the manual wind windows.

Front ones have never been legally required.

I was reading something on the Cooper site a while ago and apparently the tread chipping you and I get on the rear tyres is due to stones thrown from the front tyres. I was thinking of adding a mud flap in front of the rear tyres to reduce it. I have already fitted a small one to stop the body mount from filling with mud.

Doh! It's not that hard!!!!
The easy way to get the front ones off is to carelessly reverse park against a high curb in Balmain...this will neatly remove it and reveal the rust behind that used to be the footwell....

Hmm, only coopers require front mudflaps to prevent chipping
